SITES AND SOURCES FOR FREE/CHEAT BOOKS (eBooks, Textbooks, Audiobooks etc)

Main Link/Home on Reddit at https://www.reddit.com/r/textbook/comments/x8jc3t/sites_and_sources_for_free_books/ (/r/textbook Sub)

Adding all the places where you can get cheap/free text books!

The goal is to be able to get textbooks to students for free/super cheap (hopefully free)

The first if obviously LIBGEN, the best place for ebooks! Zlib is like a good mirror too

Any ebook shared with us, we upload on libgen - ~~Msg me and I'll try and get you what you want~~, though I've graduated now and don't have as much time, I still try and keep uploading new textbooks to Libgen. If you end up buying one from someone here on reddit, do please share with me and I'll upload it :) There are people here who sell textbooks but their prices are slightly higher. Make sure they are legit from buying from them.

Custom search engine script that searches through many free sites: https://cse.google.com/cse?cx=b1e7d762449d340d5

More resources:

(They are not in any order. Also be careful, some of these sites try to make you download viruses so be careful. Tell us which sites are clean and which are not so clean and which should NOT be here! We try and remove all the malicious ones - ALWAYS USE AN ADBLOCKER)

Do please tell us if you know of any more.. If any of the above site doesn't work, please tell us that too. Also add comments etc below or message me and we'll try to add them here for guidance.

Before buying from anyone here, make sure their ID is old, have some comments and successful orders. Too many scammers nowadays :( Also if you end up buying ANY textbook, pls also send a link to me (/u/blainemeans2) so I can upload it to Libgen OR you can upload it there directly so everyone benefits! That would be huge!!

IF you can't find it anywhere, but its available on VitalSource, you can order it from ToF Books Custom and they promise delivery within 24 hours (but they charge $23). - Make sure its available on Vitalsource.com first (basically they can rip mostly any ebook from vitalsource).

BEWARE OF SCAMMERS MESSAGING YOU ABOUT BOOKS. THEY USUALLY WON'T MESSAGE IN THE SUB FIRST
